    Nice project, I do recommend an air gap of some sort, I and several others use the BGE Table nest.  makes your table a lot safer.  I really like the look.

    I’m not sure what u mean by air gap.  Are u referring to having the egg sitting on legs instead of the concrete patio stone ?

    Hey @lentsboy007 - thanks for the kind words.  Glad you’re enjoying the OB chicken.  Decking looks great!

    @lentsboy007 - couple of choices.

    or from your dealer you might try this:

    I have the BGE nest but the CI might be more stable if you move the table around.

    Nice project. You'll get all kinds of opinions on an open forum. I like the comment about 'cars'.

    I have my XL in a BGE wood table. It sits on a nest which gives it 2-3'' of space between the bottom of the egg and the wood shelf - air gap.

    Love the back yard - property. Wish I had some open space!

    Thanks, 1.2 acres with a good view , surrounded by woods and fields . No close neighbors.  We plant the yard this month , some green grass will make things look nicer for sure.  That’s a damn nice table you have .  I will look at those nests.

    Where are you located? That view will go up 100% once you add the grass.

    I understand the necessity of putting some improvements off until next year. I need to do some work on the pool to clean it up and fix a small leak. But it too will have to wait. I also want to put in a gazebo for my Eggs but can't afford to at the moment.
